An Attractive Homo Game.

"Snap Fifty" is the name of an attractive
home game in which all the family can par
ticipate. The American Agriculturist tells
how to play this game. The players sit
about any smooth table and each one receives
five checker men. Kernels of corn or fat
counters Of some sort will do, Though checker
men are the best The men belonging to
each player must be distinctly marked with
an initial or otherwise. The game proceeds
in this way: An inverted tea saucer is placed
in the middle. Then one after another, go
ing to the left around, the players each
snap one man or counter from the edge of
tho table, or from certain line, toward
the saucer. When all the counters are
played, the one whose man Is closest counts
five for game; II two or more Of the same
players men are nearer than others, he
counts ten or attentive for each. If
counter lies up partly of the table and upon
the saucer it counts ten: If one has landed
upon the top of the saucer, fifteen. Every
player is ct liberty to make strong shot and
knock away a man Of one of his opponents.
If he knocks it of tho table it counts five:
if his own man goes of, or if he knocks off
one Of his own men, it counts five to every
one of the other players. A player may, by
shooting at one of his own men, push it up
close to the saucer, or he may even knock it
quite up on the saucer. The game is fifty.

How a Spider Undresses.

When spider is preparing to mott, it stops
eating for several days and fastens itself by
a short line of web to ono Of the main lines Of
its snare, which holds 1t firmly while it pro-
cecds to undress. The skin cracks all around
the thorax and is held only by the front edge.
Next the abdomen is uncovered. Now comes
the struggle to free the legs. 1t works and
kicks vigorously, and seems to have very
hard work. But continued perseverance Of
about fifteen minutes brings it out Of the old
dress, and it seems almost lifeless, and is
limp and helpless for several minutes but
gradually comes back to life and looks
brighter and prettier than before. To young
people it is an operation Of extreme interest.
Golden Days tells the story Of "a little boy
who, after watching the melting of nowly
full grown pet spider, ran to his mother, say
ing; "Mamma, my spider undressed and hung
his dress On line"

was SO stiff and bruised that he could hardly
stir. "How far is the house?" he asked.
"Only about a mile-just there; we shall

the neck in both his hands, and. putting out

perfectly quiet, and would never kick again,
and the lady, too, was quiet. He wondered |
vaguely if the brute had killed her-he was
as yet too weak to go and see-and then fell |
